Living what we profess 3

Passing affections easily produce words; and words are cheap; ...Christian practice is a costly, laborious thing. The self-denial that is required of Christians, and the narrowness of the way that leads to life, don't consist in words, but in practice. Hypocrites may much more easily be brought to talk like saint, than act like saints.

Jonathan Edwards
